I think there is no thread about SCs voting. As I am from Spain, I watched some photos of spanish SCs voting at different elections.You can add other SCs.

@mrcatlord Because I believe her age is exaggerated. The blog segundacentena reports her date of birth as 1 Jan 1918 here. Probably because she was claiming 1918 just 2 years ago (article).

Then it doesn't make sense for her to be listed in this thread, if she's just 106

They probably didn't know she has changed year claimed year of birth. Seems like they were just looking at recent coverage (there was an article today about it that probably sparked the thread).

An article said once that she was born in 1918. But the rest of articles support that she was born in 1913. I don't know if people from Segunda Centena know more about her case or they only listed her being born in 1918 as they want to be conservative. Anyway, I will put 1913 with a question mark, as we are not really sure if she was born in 1913.@mrcatlord Because I believe her age is exaggerated.

Weirdly, the URL for the article from 2 years ago says '109' (for me at least). If is it possible that she was born in 1913, her case should be researched more
